The Mazda5 rolled onto the scene in the spring of 2005 as an entirely new C-segment minivan based on the development concept of being ’communicative and dynamic’. And since, the Mazda5 has garnered praise and respect around the world and also earned some 25 prestigious awards.
While recognizing the achievements to date, we are also strongly aware that the values our customers seek in a car grow more diverse by the day. Amidst the growing awareness of concerns related to protecting the environment, an increasing number of customers are taking greater interest in the amount of CO2 produced by car exhaust emissions. Accordingly, customers are focusing more strongly on fuel mileage as a criterion for choosing their next car. Mazda has already begun working to deliver a new balance of its pleasing Zoom-Zoom driving experience combined with outstanding environmental performance and safety. Refinements made to the Mazda5 this time around clearly mark a solid first step toward this evolution. Refinements to the Mazda5’s powertrain improve fuel mileage to achieve a level of environmental performance that leads its class. Attention has been given to further polishing the Mazda5’s sporty looks and stylish design to bring even greater character and distinguishing flair to both available appearance packages.

To deliver even greater handling stability with a full passenger complement at highway speeds while maintaining the same class-leading handling performance, we optimally tuned the suspension and realized remarkably stable handling during lane changes or when negotiating curves at highway speeds, even when carrying six passengers.
The freshened Mazda5 represents the culmination of the efforts contributed by each member of our development team as well as my determination to create a great product. Nothing could make me happier than to have customers around the world will welcome the Mazda5 as a member of their families, and put it to good use in the varied scenes that comprise their daily activities.
